The Alabama 10th Infantry Regiment was organized at Montgomery, 4 June 1861, with men recruited from Calhoun, De Kalb, Jefferson, Saint Clair, Shelby, and Talladega counties. It went to Virginia a month later. When it arrived at Winchester, it was brigaded under General Edmund Kirby Smith with the 9th and 11th Alabama, 19th Mississippi, and 38th Virginia regiments. At Appomattox the regiment surrendered 10 commissioned officers and 208 men. Of the 1429 names on the muster rolls, nearly 300 were killed or mortally wounded.
